<!--- This example shows how to use CreateDate, CreateDateTime, CreateODBCDate, and CreateODBCDateTime ---> 
<h3>CreateODBCDateTime Example</h3> 
 
<cfif IsDefined("form.year")> 
Your date value, generated using CreateDateTime: 
<cfset yourDate = CreateDateTime(#form.year#, #form.month#, #form.day#,#form.hour#,#form.minute#, #form.second#)> 
<cfoutput> 
<ul> 
    <li>Formatted with CreateDate: #CreateDate(form.day, form.month,form.year,)# 
    <li>Formatted with CreateDateTime: #CreateDateTime(form.year,form.month, 
        form.day,form.hour,form.minute,form.second)# 
    <li>Formatted with CreateODBCDate: #CreateODBCDate(yourDate)# 
    <li>Formatted with CreateODBCDateTime: #CreateODBCDateTime(yourDate)# 
</ul> 
<p>The same value can be formatted with DateFormat: 
<ul> 
    <li>Formatted with CreateDate and DateFormat:  
        #DateFormat(CreateDate(form.year,form.month,form.day), "mmm-dd-yyyy")# 
    <li>Formatted with CreateDateTime and DateFormat:  
        #DateFormat(CreateDateTime(form.year,form.month,form.day,  
        form.hour,form.minute,form.second))# 
    <li>Formatted with CreateODBCDate and DateFormat:  
        #DateFormat(CreateODBCDate(yourDate), "mmmm d, yyyy")# 
    <li>Formatted with CreateODBCDateTime and DateFormat:  
        #DateFormat(CreateODBCDateTime(yourDate), "d/m/yy")# 
</ul> 
</cfoutput>
